On our broadcast tonight, the failure in American education. What some are calling a clear and present danger. Now hear this. New evidence on what electronics are doing to all of us, especially our kids. From NBC News world headquarters in New York, this is NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams.

 

Think of all the American presidents in your lifetime who’ve said their goal is a quality education for every American. Well, tonight there’s new evidence this country is falling far short, dangerously short in just the number of Americans graduating from high school. Only 47% of this nation’s black males graduated from high school in the 07, 08 year. Again, that’s just one number. It’s a crisis big enough to trigger real fears of two separate American societies. Those with an education and those without. Our report tonight from our education correspondent Rehema Ellis.

 

More than half the nation’s black male students will not graduate from high school. Among the worst performing public school districts with large black male populations, New York City and Philadelphia graduated only 28% of black male students in 2008. In Broward County, Florida, the number was 39%. Chicago 44% and Nashville, Tennessee 47%.
